Serenity Lane

They offer outpatient and telemedicine. Which one fits is usually decided by how much structure the first few weeks need, and Eugene has 8 other centers within 14 miles.

They do not detox. Withdrawal from alcohol or benzodiazepines in particular is a medical event, and the closest place set up for it is in Eugene, under a mile away.

They offer a program for people who are pregnant or just postpartum, which not every center around Eugene does.

They are outpatient. If someone needs to be away from where they are using, Eugene has the nearest beds, under a mile away.

They offer a telemedicine option. What that covers varies, and a first appointment in Eugene often still has to be in person.

Anything a program will put in writing is easier to compare than anything it only says on a call. A program that cannot tell you its staff to client ratio usually has a reason. Ask whether the person on the phone works for the center or for a referral service.

Both at once is the common case, and treating only one of them is why some first attempts come apart. Not every center has a prescriber for psychiatric medication, and that is a concrete difference to ask about. Bring any existing diagnosis and the name of whoever is treating it.

The records are protected, and the protection is specific to addiction treatment rather than general. The form sets both who may be told and what they may be told, which are two separate choices. Read what you sign at intake, because the release is in that stack.
